CentOS automatic installation fails with “Installation Destination” error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi,

I'm trying to install the centos netboot install on ppc64le platform but
automation installation(kickstart) fails with the following error:

   Starting installer, one moment...
   find_file: stat /proc/device-tree/chosen/bootpath, No such file or
   directory
   anaconda 21.48.22.56-1 for CentOS AltArch 7 started.
    * installation log files are stored in /tmp during the installation
    * shell is available on TTY2
    * when reporting a bug add logs from /tmp as separate text/plain
   attachments

   ** (anaconda:1253): WARNING **: Could not open X display

   The installation was stopped due to incomplete spokes detected while
   running in non-interactive cmdline mode. Since there cannot be any
   questions in cmdline mode, edit your kickstart file and retry
   installation.
   The exact error message is:

   The following mandatory spokes are not completed:
   Installation Destination.

   The installer will now terminate.

   [root@llmtul01b qemu]#



And kickstart file looks like:

   url --url="http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/os/ppc64le/";
   install
   keyboard us
   rootpw --lock --iscrypted locked
   timezone --isUtc --nontp UTC
   selinux --enforcing
   firewall --disabled
   network --bootproto=dhcp --device=link --activate --onboot=on
   reboot
   bootloader --disable
   lang en_US

   # Repositories to use
   repo --name="CentOS"
   --baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/os/ppc64le/ --cost=100
   ## Uncomment for rolling builds
   repo --name="Updates"
   --baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/updates/ppc64le/ --cost=100

   # Disk setup
   zerombr
   clearpart --all --initlabel
   part / --fstype ext4 --size=3000

Looking for the option to select the installation destination through
kickstart file.

Thanks,
Manjunath.
